Extending the service life of the hydraulic oil filter is very important to maintain the normal operation of the hydraulic system and reduce maintenance costs. The specific analysis is as follows:
1. Check the filter element regularly
During use, the filter element will be continuously eroded by pollutants, so it is essential to check the condition of the filter element regularly. During inspection, attention should be paid to whether there is obvious wear, damage or deformation on the surface of the filter element. If the problem is found, the filter element should be replaced in time to avoid affecting the normal operation of the hydraulic system.
2. Replace the filter element in time
According to the use of the equipment and the manufacturer's recommendations, develop a reasonable filter replacement cycle. Timely replacement of the filter element can effectively prevent the damage of pollutants to the hydraulic system and extend the service life of the equipment.
3. Keep the hydraulic oil clean
The cleanliness of the hydraulic oil has a great impact on the service life of the filter element. Therefore, the hydraulic oil should be filtered and replaced regularly to ensure the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil. In addition, pollutants such as water and metal particles should be avoided from entering the hydraulic system to reduce the burden on the filter element.
4. Set filtering accuracy reasonably
The filtration accuracy of the filter element should be selected according to the working requirements of the hydraulic system and the degree of pollution. The high filtration accuracy may cause the filter element to clog too quickly and affect the service life; If the filtration accuracy is too low, the pollutants cannot be effectively filtered and the normal operation of the hydraulic system will be affected. Therefore, a reasonable setting of filtration accuracy is helpful to extend the service life of the filter element.
5. Clean the filter element regularly
When replacing the hydraulic oil, the filter element can be cleaned. When cleaning, you can use a special cleaning agent, gently scrub the surface of the filter, and then dry with compressed air. After cleaning, the filter element should be dried or desiccant should be used to remove excess water to prevent rust.
6. Avoid leaving the filter cartridge empty for a long time
If the filter is not used for a long time, it may lead to moisture, rust or aging of the filter. Therefore, when the hydraulic equipment is not used, the power should be turned off, and the filter element should be stored in a dry and cool place to extend its service life.
7. Choose high quality filter element products
High quality filter element products have better filtration performance and longer service life. For example, Hedecker hydraulic industrial filter can effectively filter solid particles and colloidal substances in the working medium, control the degree of pollution of the working medium, thereby extending the service life of the hydraulic system.
8. Optimize the workflow of the hydraulic system
By optimizing the work flow of the hydraulic system, the working pressure and load of the filter can be reduced, thus extending the service life of the filter. For example, the combined hydraulic filtration scheme can improve the filtration effect without changing the existing oil return filter scheme.
9. Regularly train operation and maintenance personnel
Ensuring that operators and maintenance personnel understand how to properly inspect and maintain hydraulic oil filters can significantly extend the service life of the filter element. The training content should include the inspection method of the filter element, the replacement cycle, the cleaning method and the troubleshooting.
10. Use an auxiliary filtration system
The installation of auxiliary filtration systems in the hydraulic system, such as pipe filters or tank fueling and ventilation filters, allows additional filtration of the hydraulic oil at key locations, thereby reducing the work load of the main filter element and extending its service life.
